If you have been considering selling your home and buying something else, now is a great time!

Here are our top 3 reasons to sell this spring...

1. Inventory is Low and buyers are buying! Inventory in Maine is lower than we have seen it in years! In Androscoggin County there is about 6 months of residential property on the market. Just 6 months ago there was 8 months of inventory on the market. In Cumberland County there is less than 4 months on inventory on the market. 6 months ago there was 6 months of inventory. With inventory low, buyers will be competing to get the property available. That could mean multiple offers and a better price for your home!

2. Moving on Up If you are selling in order to buy something bigger and better, now is a great time. Prices and interest rates are projected to rise for the next couple of years. Paying the lower interest rates that are currently available could save you a lot of money over the life of your new mortgage.

3. Quicker ClosingThe real estate market will just get busier in the next few months. That means inspectors, lenders, and title companies will all be busier. This could cause your closing to take longer than it will right now.
